The measure of the angles are ∠A = 91°, ∠C = 89° and ∠D = 34°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in a circle.
The given angles are ∠A = (2x + 3), ∠C = (2x + 1) and ∠D = (x - 10)
We need to determine the measures of the angles A, C and D
The value of x:
We know that, the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral add up to 180°
Thus, we have,
![\angle A+\angle C=180^(\circ)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/vkrf7czvaeorvx1g0riprwnpa1t3k81qok.png)
Substituting the values, we have,
![2x+3+2x+1=180](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/a8wpqttnofiqz4169udrpwamflo68t48tz.png)
![4x+4=180](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/mu3yoofuxdc78peq7k3oxvsh5m62z21gk5.png)
![4x=176](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/g41l60c606pu25qe2t5f0s5enklwuv4tij.png)
![x=44](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/v7t2lti8s9jdsczhmr1qpsyaovn9tcuvd3.png)
Thus, the value of x is 44.
Measure of ∠A:
Substituting
in ∠A = (2x + 3)°, we get,
![\angle A=(2(44)+3)^(\circ)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/rj5cw2i8d5l7oc65159skt2q9afr3u4vyp.png)
![=(88+3)^(\circ)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/ver7dqd7dimc2q99qy4avx5hdj6r92k4xl.png)
![\angle A=91^(\circ)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/r312wxd2om5az956mw99m4zoj1spzzwogq.png)
Thus, the measure of angle A is 91°.
Measure of ∠C :
Substituting
in ∠C = (2x + 1)°, we get,
![\angle C=(2(44)+1)^(\circ)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/o51piu41rz195ckf37jpetupde7vaxlj41.png)
![=(88+1)^(\circ)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/e0bo3hw1ongugivksycjrxn9qvrt140chx.png)
![\angle C=89^(\circ)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/9ihfsii5jpm5x7d0ktzhd7omkboqqdbfto.png)
Thus, the measure of angle C is 89°.
Measure of ∠D :
Substituting
in ∠D = (x - 10)°, we get,
![\angle D=(44-10)^(\circ)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/p7h8nq8gs11y9u7ygpkvuqsy1lumyaqoir.png)
![\angle D=34^(\circ)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/efon6i1a1ust0wrqcea7l1zc3p59ftim32.png)
Thus, the measure of angle D is 34°.
Hence, the measure of the angles are ∠A = 91°, ∠C = 89° and ∠D = 34°
